Bluetooth speaker integration #86

Closed glenndav closed 8 years ago

glenndav commented 8 years ago

While audio through the wired output works fine in this project, and while my Bluetooth speaker works well with other applications on my Pi, there appears to be a conflict which prevents Bluetooth audio out here - even when the Bluetooth speaker is the default audio output.

@glenndav I use a bluetooth speaker - which branch are you using?

glenndav commented 8 years ago

1.1 branch

Back trace?

I think it is a bad configuration of bluetooth on my end... although LXMusic and VLC work fine with my bluetooth speakers through the GUI, it is not showing up when I type:

arecord -L

@glenndav I would plug into a screen and open up pulse and see if the audio is still trying to be played thru something else. and build a unit test to play the hello.mp3 until you get it working.

Thanks, a lot.
